  • Nottingham Forest suffered a 3-2 Europa League defeat to Midtjylland in their first home European match in nearly three decades.
  • The loss extended new manager Ange Postecoglou's winless streak to 22 days and six matches, making him the first permanent manager in 100 years to fail to secure a victory in his initial six games.
  • Frustrated home supporters chanted 'sacked in the morning' at Postecoglou, while also voicing support for former boss Nuno Espirito Santo.
  • Midtjylland took an early lead through Ousmane Diao, with Dan Ndoye equalising for Forest before Mads Bech restored the visitors' lead.
  • Despite two disallowed goals for Chris Wood, Midtjylland secured their third goal via Valdemar Andreasen, with Wood's late penalty proving to be a mere consolation.
